OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between localized features of diabetic macular edema (DME) and point-wise retinal sensitivity (RS) assessed with microperimetry (MP) using deep learning (DL)-based automated quantification on optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans.
DESIGN: Cross-sectional study.
PARTICIPANTS: Twenty eyes of 20 subjects with clinically significant DME were included in this study.
METHODS: Patients with DME visible on OCT scans (Spectralis Heidelberg Retina Angiograph [HRA]+OCT) completed 2 MP examinations using a custom 45 stimuli grid on MAIA (CenterVue). MP stimuli were coregistered with the corresponding OCT location using image registration algorithms. DL-based algorithms were used to quantify intraretinal fluid (IRF) and ellipsoid zone (EZ) thickness. Hard exudates (HEs) were quantified semiautomatically. Multivariable mixed-effect models were calculated to investigate the association between DME-specific OCT features and point-wise RS. As EZ thickness values below HEs were excluded, the models included either EZ thickness or HEs.
RESULTS: A total of 1800 MP stimuli from 20 eyes of 20 patients were analyzed. Stimuli with IRF (n = 568) showed significantly decreased RS compared to areas without (estimate [95% CI]: -1.11 dB [-1.69, -0.52]; p = 0.0002). IRF volume was significantly negatively (-0.45 dB/nL [-0.71; -0.18]; p = 0.001) and EZ thickness positively (0.14 dB/µm [0.1; 0.19]; p < 0.0001) associated with localized point-wise RS. In the multivariable mixed model, including HE volume instead of EZ thickness, a negative impact on RS was observed (-0.43/0.1 nL [-0.81; -0.05]; p = 0.027).
CONCLUSIONS: DME-specific features, as analyzed on OCT, have a significant impact on point-wise RS. IRF and HE volume showed a negative and EZ thickness, a positive association with localized RS.
